used gamecube stuff is going cheap these days ...

I saw used copies of Starfox, F Zero and Paper Mario at my local EB games. I love video games, but do you think these games would appeal to someone who's almost in his thirties?

Also a friend promised me a copy of The Legend of Zelda Collectors Edition, but alas, now he can't find it I have sized up some copies of it on Ebay. I wonder is it worth the extra money to get Ocarina of Time AND Majora's Mask, or should I cheap out and just download OoT for Virtual Console? I guess it depends on how much you love Zelda. I missed out on many great Ninty games and I'd like to play the classics.

Yeah, you can get your hands on a lot of classic GC games for bargain prices at the moment. Since I didn't own a GC, I found myself picking up a lot of titles which were GC exclusives.

I got Beyond Good and Evil (another rare-ish GC exclusive) for $2.99 at my local record store. I love how all of the sports games lose their value within months. NBA 2k2 was $.99.

EB and gamestop are a rip-off compared to eBay. It requires patience, but there are some great deals to be had. I got my Zelda Collector's Edition off ebay for $8.04, gamestop lists it as $45 used.

Speaking of, if anyone wants a cheap original Metroid Prime for gamecube, my spare copy is going for $.99 on ebay, free shipping, as we speak.
